Jewel - Ten Lyrics






Whoever said that love is easy, must has never been in love;
Sometimes its a land mine, one wrong step and it blows up;
A word, a look, lights a hidden fuse.

It's hard to see just what you have, when you're seeing red;
And it's easy to do something that you know you both will regret;
Better stop, think, count to ten before I leave.

One, I still wanna hate you;
Two, three, I still wanna leave;
Four, searching for that door;
Five, then I look into your eyes;
Six, take a deep breathe;
Seven, take a step back;
Eight, nine, I don't know why, we even started this fight;
By the time I get to ten, I'm right back in your arms again.

Words thrown so callously like weapons when we fight;
But when they cut too deep, I wanna leave it all behind;
That I've to count to ten, before I cross that line.

One, I still wanna hate you;
Two, three, I still wanna leave;
Four, searching for that door;
Five, then I look into your eyes;
Six, take a deep breathe;
Seven, take a step back;
Eight, nine, I don't know why, we even started this fight;
By the time I get to ten, I'm right back in your arms again.

You can lose what you're not thankful for,
I don't want that to happen to you and me,
Better count my blessings.

One, you still move me;
Two, three, you send chills right through me;
Four, you keep me wanted more;
Five, when I look into your eye;
Six, you're my best friend;
Seven, that will never end;
Eight, nine, I don't know why, but thank God it happens every-time;
By the time I get to ten,
By the time I get to ten,
I can see how blessed I've been.

I'd chose you all over again...

  24. M.... M....

    jewel is the greatest ever such a goddess😘

  25. K.... K....

    Honestly, I think the boxing heart scene was corny. However, I have loved Jewel since the 90s so she can be corny all she wants.

  26. c.... e....

    A very beautiful and original video and song.

  27. b.... h....

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nI1WBENDXV8

  28. Q.... B....

    Honestly, Jewel is the only singer I have seen so far that produces high quality pieces with perfect vocal performance throughout a career. I mean in terms of pop music but not classic or other genre, of course.

  29. j.... s....

    if you look at the brunette in this video and then look at the girl Ty just married, it sort of makes you wonder if Ty was seeing the girl he's with now while him and Jewel were still together. ..they look very similar. it might just be a coincidence though...

  30. N.... G....

    Beautiful song. She has the most beautiful face. I wish I was that pretty.

    d.... c....

    +danielle chadwick But YOU ARE Pretty Danielle! We are ALL Pretty! :-D
    DON'T be so hard on Yourself. We are ALL Unique AND Pretty! :-)

    d.... c....

    you are a beautiful person too

    d.... c....

    She finally shows her eyes in this song. She seems to be wired differently; her eyes are clues to her heart, the size of Alaska. You can almost sense through her eyes she is very smart and funny as well. Take away her looks, angel-whispering voice, fame and fortune, and she's still more lovable than 99% of the women I've dated. Add the positive attributes and she is simply unobtainium. Net-net plenty of room for you plain hillbilly Janes out there.

    d.... c....

    she is very gorgeous

  45. Y.... U....

    Jewel, I love you!!

    I love the boxing scene with the heart! Jewel was one of my favourites but I haven't checked out her new music for years. So glad I am now because I'm loving it again. She has amazing lyrics.

    M.... B....

    Margo Belle-Fleur , I remember when her first video hit MTV in the mid 90s! I believe I was a junior or senior in HS. Man I'm getting old! lol

    It is NO wonder that YOU ARE SO UGLY AND BiTTER judah, now GO AWAY FOREVER from this World 'cause NO ONE wants you around anyway, Lmfao! :-)

  53. S.... H....

    I love jewel

  54. 1.... ....

    Wow im disapointed fuck..I remeber her 1990s damm wtf is this shit

  55. B.... D....

    Whoa jewel.. What happened? Country? Oh man... I'm disappointed..

  56. a.... l....

    Six, you're my best friend; Seven, that'll never end; Eight, nine, I don't know why, but thank God it happens everytime By the time I get to ten, oh, I can see how blessed I've been.

  57. A.... R....

    amazing song
    ;)

  58. t.... ....

    she sang this song on howard stern

  59. A.... ....

    I like her face angry in bed.... cool I love cope a woman like her...

  60. F.... O....

  61. A.... Z....

    I love jewel and her song so much~ She is amazing

  62. Y.... P....

    Jewel always look great and the songs always easy to hear

  63. C.... P....

    this is cute haha her and the heart in the ring :p

  64. g.... ....

    so do U1

  65. L.... ....

    lol, is it just me or does he look about twenty years older than she does?

  66. S.... ....

    alot of your songs have turned too country and not enough to the heart like when you were younger, plus you have sped the songs up a bit, when you had slower songs like Foolish games it was more touching :)

  67. b.... d....

    What a lovely song, I love the lyrics. so inspiring, i'm so touch, wanna feel like crying. I love the video too! before heading for divorce, you should count one-ten. or 1-1000 ;))

  68. W.... B....

    Even with her more somber and depressed lyrics she made when she was younger, up to these times when she sings beautiful things and gives people hope, her songs are always packed so beautifully... I've never stated favorites, but when people ask who my favorite singer is, I can say Jewel in no count.

  69. g.... ....

    Busty fighter

  70. H.... ....

    It's a funny music video about a serious matter, sung so effortlessly by Jewel. And the guy's a looker, too.

  71. s.... ....

    40 days

  72. G.... D....

    Her eyes looks different..

  73. A.... M....

    This girl can sing!

  74. I.... A....

    lol just woke up from sleep and thought of this song lol :-P

  75. S.... ....

    this video is not believable to me- how could you ever be mad at Jewel?

  76. H.... S....

    This song is truly amazing, she is such a sweet person and this sing is amazing

  77. P.... C....

    .....the best female voice in country music..........

  78. R.... T....

    Well done. At a boy Case!

  79. J.... ....

    this is love.

  80. C.... ....

    @stefgi32 Dude, did you ever actually WATCH the video for "Intuition"? Saying Jewel sold out with 0304 is like saying Jonathan Swift ACTUALLY wanted the Irish to eat their babies in "A Modest Proposal."

    C.... ....

    hahahahahhahahahaa

  81. m.... ....

    Thank you for making a song that calms my nerves when me and my bf are fighting. I know couples fight, but this encourages me that I'm not alone and to stay strong. :) I'm counting to 10 one m0:00re time. <3

  82. H.... K....

    I think anyone that disagrees with Jewels talented music is a lost soul. Her music is deep and moving. She brings the world to a better place.
    Her lyrics are inspiring and listening to it makes me a better person.

  83. b.... ....

    I don't think sold out by doing country music or the 0304 album. I think she's showing off her diversity. Country, folk, pop, rock, lullabies. She can do it all. Artists shouldn't have to limit themselves to just one type of music in their entire careers.

  84. L.... R....

    I´m Argentinian ... and I love country music, but most of all, I love Jewel. She´s perfect.

  85. b.... ....

    the video was a little weird, but I love the song as with all the Jewel songs!!!

  86. s.... ....

    <3
    So cute and adorable..love this song, love Jewel. =)

  87. s.... ....

    @Des868 just to add to the debate...you want to talk about Jewel selling out? Talking about her album 0304, now THAT is selling out. Haha, I mean c'mon she did that album and you're saying she sold out HERE??

  88. A.... ....

    I'm sorry, but to me country music is an extreme sellout. With nearly 0% creativity what is the purpose of it except to make money? If you notice, all the music is required to sound exactly the same, and the individual herself must fit a certain mold. These people seem highly intolerant of anything different, because different doesn't make money. Jewel now sounds exactly like any other country careerist. I am very sad for her, and the world lost a good artist.

  89. I.... ....

    @meija101: Ha ha ha ha very funny. She's married to Ty Murray and the guy in the video is not Ty.

  90. A.... ....

    Ugh...moving to country music might have been good for her bank account, but her creativity suffered immensely. More than any other music genre, country music has no room for imagination. I guess she was willing to sacrifice art for money/fame. Sad thing, really.

  91. G.... ....

    is really great song and amazing lyrics

  92. B.... ....

    @meija101 are you sure that's her husband? hmm it didn't look like ty to me but maybe...

  93. M.... M....

    this video is kinda briliiant. kinda really brilliant.

  94. u.... ....

    hahaha, that's an ugly heart.
    but such a cute song.

  95. R.... ....

    Love this song. Wish others would follow it.

  96. i.... ....

    this song leaves me wanting for more... great job Jewel!!!

  97. A.... ....

    nice song ,actually her all songs are great, if it is true vote me up

  98. N.... K....

    i love you jewel and i am an African American :D

  99. a.... ....

    Great music video, she acts well in it:)
